Drum mulcher on a skid steer handles up to 8-inch trees — honeysuckle, briars, and heavy brush gone in a single pass. Residential and commercial. Fixed price before we show up.
Invasive honeysuckle and heavy brush take a little more every season. Most people don't realize how fast it spreads — or how simple it is to take it back.
A drum mulcher grinds through brush, saplings, and trees up to 8 inches in a single pass — leaving wood mulch that breaks down naturally in 12–18 months.
We work with residential landowners and commercial clients — builders clearing lots, developers cleaning up perimeters, property owners reclaiming overgrown land. Not a tree service, not an excavating company. Brush clearing is our lane.
Years of honeysuckle and saplings have buried your fence line. We open it back up, expose the wire, and reclaim your property edge — quoted by the linear foot, not the day.

Hunting access, walking paths, ATV corridors — we cut clean trails through dense woods and brush. You walk the route with us, we mulch it through. Width is your call.
Great for Hunting Land
Open up pastures, back fields, or overgrown lots. Dense honeysuckle thickets, briar patches, mixed brush — up to 8-inch trees mulched in place. Land becomes usable in one session.
Up to 8" Trees
Overgrown lots, new development perimeters, and commercial properties that need brush cleared before the real work starts. We're not a tree service and we're not a grading crew — just mulching, done right.
Commercial WelcomeNo grading, no excavation, no site prep for construction pads. We clear brush — we don't move dirt. If you need a grader or excavator, we'll tell you upfront.
Bush honeysuckle is the most aggressive invasive shrub in the Lafayette area and across Indiana. It leafs out early, shades out native plants, and spreads fast.
A drum mulcher is the most efficient tool for knocking it back — grinding stems to the ground in a single pass. It's not permanent without follow-up herbicide, but it's the fastest reset available.
From first contact to cleared land, most residential jobs wrap in a week or less.

By the quarter acre for area clearing, or by the linear foot for fence rows and trails. Three tiers of brush density and three terrain tiers set the per-unit rate. You get a fixed written price before we start.
Around $700–$800 minimum to cover equipment mobilization. That covers a short fence row run or a small overgrown corner. Most jobs land between $1,500 and $5,000.
Yes — honeysuckle resprouts from the root crown. Mulching is the fastest reset, but long-term control requires follow-up cut-stump herbicide or repeat mulching. We'll give you straight talk on what to expect.
Rubber tracks distribute weight and limit ground damage. We avoid saturated conditions when possible. Turf near the work area may show track marks, but most properties recover quickly.
They stay on-site as natural ground cover. Mulch breaks down in 12–18 months, improving soil. Grass and native plants push through naturally — nothing gets hauled away.
Yes, with terrain tier pricing. The skid steer handles moderate slopes and rolling ground well. Steep banks or flood-prone areas may need a site visit before quoting.
Yes. Builders with overgrown lots, developers cleaning up property perimeters, commercial landowners reclaiming brush — that's our wheelhouse. What we don't do is site prep for construction. No grading, no excavating, no building pad work. Brush clearing is our lane.
Typically 1–2 weeks during busy season. Fall is a great time — better visibility through the brush, less ground saturation. Contact us now to get on the schedule.
